Spot and Spill Procedures -


• Make sure that you clean up spots and spills immediately before they set.

• First, soak up the excess liquid by blotting with a clean absorbent material. Do not brush or rub the stain.

• Then spot-clean with a mild detergent-white vinegar-water solution. Do-not over wet.

• Rinse area thoroughly with water and a small amount of vinegar. Avoid wetting the rug's backing.

• Blot dry until most of the moisture has been absorbed.

• Allow to air dry. A fan or cool hair dryer can be used to hasten the drying process.

• For stains that do not come out using these methods, ask our cleaning specialists.

How to Care for your Oriental Rug

Rotation - To insure even wear, your rug should be rotated once a year. Depending on the traffic, the rotation may vary from six months to two years.

Vacuuming - Oriental rugs, like most carpeting, should be vacuumed on a regular basis to remove dirt and restore life to the fibers. Be sure not to vacuum the fringe with your beater bar! Use the end of a vacuum hose from a canister vacuum.

Padding - A quality pad used under your rug helps protect it from dirt, wear and slippage.
